Julius Peppers leads Panthers’ veteran influx
Posted May 28, 2017
Even someone the stature of Carolina linebacker Luke Kuechly isn’t above getting star struck, and the sixth-year player described his initial encounter with Julius Peppers after the veteran was picked up by the team. “He walked in, I was like, man, that’s Julius Peppers. You bring a guy like that in and it’s just cool, not only for me, but a lot of guys on the team.”
